High Achievement for All

Learning and Teaching

Kinaesthetic Approaches

• Use gestures and movement to learn a new concept. For example, in developing rhythm work: clap for a crotchet; clap - hold for a minim; hands held out for a rest.
  
   
• Use brain gym activities.
  
   
• Use movement and actions to assist in learning songs.
  
   
• Provide field trips and visits. For example: Gamelan at St David’s Hall; NOW; Techniquest; WNO; Artists in Residence.
  
   
• Provide opportunities for learning by doing. For example, pupils are practically engaged in music making activities.
  
   
• Provide opportunities to feel the beat. For example, someone takes the lead to conduct or pupils tap their feet.
